Find the zeros of the polynomial p(x) 5-10x​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Charra [1.4K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial is :

p(x) = 5-10x​

We need to find the zeros of the above polynomial. To find it, put p(x) = 0

5-10x​ = 0

Subtract 5 from both sides

5-10x​-5=0-5

-10x=-5

or

10x=5

Divide both sides by 10.

x = 0.5 = 1/2

Hence, the zeros of the polynomial is 1/2.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

36years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let charity present age be x

Charity daughter present age be y

Charity husband present age be z

If the sum of their ages ten years to come is 117, then;

10+x+10+y+10+z = 117

30+x+y+z = 117

x+y+z = 87 ... 1

If charity is four times as old as her daughter, then;

x = 4y

y = x/4 ... 2

If she is also six years younger than her husband, then;

x = z- 6

z = x+6 .. 3

Substitute 2 and 3 into 1;

x + x/4 + (x+6) = 87

Multiply through by 4

4x + x + 4(x+6) = 4(87)

5x+4x+24 = 348

9x = 348 - 24

9x = 324

x = 324/9

x = 36

hence Charity is 36years old today

Why does a logarithmic equation sometimes have an extraneous solution?
jonny [76]

The main reason behind this is using properties of logarithm .

like

when solving

  • log_2(x+2)+log_2(x-3)=3

There you use multiplication property and make addition to multiplication then you get extraneous solution because in plenty of cases they occur

like

  • (-2)²=(2)²

But

  • -2≠2

Same happens in case of logarithm

a village having a population of 4000, requires 150 litres of water per head per day. it has a tank measuring 20m x 15m x 6m. fo
allochka39001 [22]

The water will last for 3 days

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, village having a population of 4000, requires 150 litres of water per head per day

<em><u>Let us first find the volume of tank</u></em>

The tank measuring 20m x 15m x 6m

Length = 20 m

Breadth = 15 m

Height = 6 m

volume\ of\ tank = length \times breadth \times height

Volume\ of\ tank = 20 \times 15 \times 6 = 1800

Thus volume of tank is 1800 cubic meter

From given,

Water required per person per day = 150 liters

<em><u>Therefore, water required for 4000 people per day is:</u></em>

\rightarrow 4000 \times 150 = 600000 \text{ liters }

Convert to meters

600000 \text{ liters } = 600000 \times \frac{1}{1000}\ m^3\\\\600000 \text{ liters } = 600\ m^3

<em><u>How many days will the water of this tank last?</u></em>

\text{Number of days water will last } = \frac{\text{volume of tank}}{\text{total water required per day}}

\text{Number of days water will last } = \frac{1800}{600} = 3

Thus the water will last for 3 days
